The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) weight loss program is reliant on the glycaemic index, a list of types of food and an indicator of the speed with which the energy in the food type gets converted to glucose in the dieters body. The believe is that slow release types of food (ie with a low Gi score), keep you feeling full longer and help to eat fewer food without starving yourself.
It's also extremely effective for sufferers from diabetes, as the low GI food types are beneficial in managing increases in blood glucose secretion.
